ISO 12100:2010 PDF Download

ISO 12100:2010 is a standard that provides guidelines for achieving safety in machinery design. It establishes terminology, principles, and a methodology for assessing and reducing risks associated with machinery. The standard is based on knowledge and experience of incidents, accidents, and risks related to machinery use. It outlines procedures for identifying hazards, evaluating risks, and eliminating or reducing them throughout the life cycle of the machine. The standard also provides guidance on documenting and verifying the risk assessment and reduction process.

Additionally, ISO 12100:2010 serves as a foundation for developing other safety standards, specifically type-B or type-C safety standards. However, it does not address risks or damages to domestic animals, property, or the environment. The standard focuses solely on ensuring safety in machinery design to protect human operators and users.
